HELLO EVERYONE… THIS IS MY RECIPE FOR FRIED RICE.FOR THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN ASKING FOR RECIPE, THIS MAY BE OF HELP……THERE ARE SEVERAL METHODS BUT PLEASE THIS IS MY STYLE OHHH BIKO

Ingredients
– 3 cups rice
– chicken or meat, or liver 
– ginger n garlics, green spices
– curry n thyme
-carrots and green beans
– onions and green pepper
– white pepper n normal pepper
– chicken spices
– sweet corn and peas( I couldn’t find peas)
– salt n maggie

Method
– season chicken n boil…remove chicken , strain n keep aside..the stock will be used to prepare the rice
– add some more spices to the chicken stock 
– add Maggie n salt n bring to a boil
– add rice and allow to cook..( this is a very important stage in fried rice.. It should be well seasoned and the rice should not get soft…if you are not good at estimating water, you can add gradually, till it is just cooked…
– once rice gets ready. Open the pot for the rice to cool..or better still turn rice on a tray…

– slice carrots and green beans and boil for some few minutes…I boil them separately… They should still be crunchy
– arrange all ingredients as I did above… This helps you not to forget any…
– get a frying pan , some butter or oil….butter gives a richer taste but oil is healthier…I used butter…at times I use both

the frying process begins….it can be fried in three or four portions depending on the quantity you are making…for this, I fried in three additions…
– add some onions, green pepper, fried meat or shredded chicken or liver, to heated butter, add rice, curry, thyme n end with sweet corn n peas….if your rice was not tasty enough, you can add salt, Maggie, at this stage… If you think your rice lacks flavour you can add powdered spices like garlics, njinger, white pepper and chicken spices……add in small quantities and taste
– fry and turn in a different pot…at the end you mix everything together so that it is properly combined.

  4. 1 1/2 tbs sugar

  6. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to avoid sticking. Cut with round or rectangular cutters.

EASY BANANA MUFFINS

Ingredients
250g (2 cups) Self Raising flour
1 tsp bicarb
100g (1/2cup) brown sugar
2 large eggs
60ml (1/4 cup) milk
90 ml (1/3cup+2 teaspoons) vegetable oil
3 mashed ripe bananas

Method
Mix flour, bicarbonate of soda, sugar, beaten eggs, milk and oil. Stir in mashed bananas. If you like you can add mixed nuts, walnuts or raisins

Preheat oven to 200 degrees (10-20 mind) before putting muffins in the oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes till golden brown or use a toothpick to check if they are cooked inside.

TIP:- It’s bicarbonate of soda you need. No Baking powder. Brown sugar will give that nice golden brown color. You can use white sugar but they won’t come out as good as when you use brown sugar.

Happy Cooking ladies😊😊😃
